Re: The Samsung Expanded Clipboard

I tell you what ONLY in the Android Central forums can you jump into ANY phone forum and find people that are just an amazing help. And you sir are my latest find. Thank you.
I;ve had this same great thing happen when i had my Optimus s, evo, and nexus. Each time I would come to Android Central forums there was always some one always willing to help.

(not just talking about this post above but the other things you've done here too)

Re: The Samsung Expanded Clipboard is Epic (4G Touch)

I'm new to Android. I have an iPod touch and the only feature I notice on here that isn't on there is pasting previously copied items. So is this the only new feature to this? It's still a great addition. Also is there a way to delete everything on the clipboard?

To delete items from the clipboard, long-press the item and then tap Delete. Good question. I will add that.

As to the question, is there any other new feature, I am glad you asked!

There are many unique features in the 25 Reasons to Consider the Sprint Epic 4G Touch including:
• Apple says that you must have a 3.5" phone. Android has options from 2.6" to 4.5". In a survey last month of 5,000 smartphone users only 8% wanted a phone under 4".
• It's a bright SAMOLED display not an LCD display like Apple uses.
• It's dual core 1.2GHz Exynos.
• Sprint is allowing users to uninstall bloatware.
• It Syncs Wirelessly
• It securely syncs with Microsoft Exchange email, calendar, contacts and tasks.
• It's customizable.
• It has widgets and it's Widgets are Resizable
• Connect a Bluetooth Mouse/Keyboard to the Epic 4G Touch
• You can Customize the Epic 4G Touch Lock Screen
• It's Really Hands Free
• It Takes Screenshots
• It's Cheap to Accessorize

There are hundreds of other features Apple iOS is lacking including third-party keyboards, Wallpaper, microSD, Notification LED, etc. See the Getting Started.

I'm definitely getting one and I know the differences between the operating systems (for the most part). I was only asking about the clipboard. To restate my question for clarity "Does Android usually allow copying and pasting like iOS does, and the new feature on the Epic 4G Touch is that you have a clipboard of multiple items, or is there more that usually isn't featured on Android as far as copying and pasting goes?"
